Watts at 3:30AM

You can’t live at all unless you can live fully now. Alan Watts

A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts. So he loses touch with reality and lives in a world of illusion. Alan Watts

Those who sit quietly and do nothing are making one of the best possible contributions to a world in turmoil. Alan Watts

Unless one is able to live fully in the present, the future is a hoax. There is no point whatever in making plans for a future which you will never be able to enjoy. Alan Watts

It is only when there is no goal and no rush that the human senses are fully open to receive the world. Alan Watts

This present moment never comes to be and it never ceases to be, it is simply our minds that construct the continuity of thoughts we call time. In the present moment is nirvana. Alan Watts

We need more light. Light, here, means awareness – to be aware of life, of experience as it is at this moment, without any judgments or ideas about it. Alan Watts

So long as the mind believes in the possibility of escape from what it is at this moment, there can be no freedom. Alan Watts

There is no method to arrive at the place where you are. Alan Watts

The only point of dancing is to dance. Alan Watts
